(4+x)(8+x) = 4*8 + 64
x^2+12x-64 = 0
(x-4)(x+16) = 0
x = 4
So, the rectangle is
8x12 with area 96 (32+64)
the width of a rectangle is 4cm and the length is 8 cm if both the width and the length are increased by equal measures, the area of the rectangle is increased by 64 cm 2. find the length and width of the larger rectangle
